Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly spray a muffin pan with nonstick spray or line with paper cups.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, soak the bran cereal in buttermilk for about 10 minutes until it becomes soggy.
  • Add melted coconut oil, egg, brown sugar, vanilla extract, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Stir thoroughly to combine. The mixture will be thick.
  • Divide the batter equally among the 12 muffin cups, filling each almost to the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven at 450°F for 5 minutes. Then, without opening the oven door, reduce the heat to 350°F and continue baking for another 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the muffins from the pan and cool them on a wire rack.
